Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are curious, lovable, smart and eager to learn all the time. It's amazing watching them grow and develop into young individuals. They continue to grow and develop how to be caring, empathetic, supportive, and responsible people. These items will help my students build self regulation of their emotional needs and inspire them to continue to be caring, helpful human beings. Giving them a safe space to self regulate will allow them to learn more about their emotions as well as be more supportive about each others emotional needs.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
